Tag. I'm it. Damn Meme…

Thanks to Joe Speaker for Meme tagging me which now requires me to rattle off 7 random facts about myself. Jeez. Seven? Is it ironical that 7 just so happens to be the number of days since my last post? Clearly the universe—and that naughty little monkey of a poker player—is trying to tell me something. Ok, on with the Meme…

1. My dream job is (after 30 years) still to be a Muppeteer.

2. I'm smarter than the average bear. But not as funny.

3. My good Christian and tea-totaling parents don't know that I drink the booze from time to time.

4. Nearly all my life I've always wanted to own a DeLorean (time-machine outfit optional).

5. I'm dating a guy with mob ties. I think. Probably. And I like it!

6. Cantaloupe makes me throw up. Seriously. The last time I ate it I threw up in a Korean Airlines plane's galley and the co-pilot made me write a letter of apology for getting sick on the plane. I should have thrown up on him. The only reason I ate it (knowing full well that it would make me sick) is because after 8 hours it was the first (and only) food they were serving. Fuck you, Korean Airlines.

7. I've never had anal sex. Well, at least not with another person.

Oh, Speaker, I bet your regretting tagging me now, aren't you. Especially after number 7 there. But maybe it didn't paint a picture in your mind, in which case you got off lucky, instead of just getting off. :P

Speaking of lucky… these fine members of the blogosphere are the next contestants for the Meme! And in celebration of randomness, not only are the facts random, but so are the people I've chosen, er, at random.

Random people above, have a randomly awesome day! Enjoy the Meme while it lasts.

[Note from the editor: the truth is the people I really do know in the blogosphere have already been tagged. Really, the random theme was out of desperation to keep the MeMe moving on. Oh well, at least I'm expanding my known blog universe.]

Oh, and I'll give you more details on #5 soon… gots to be careful how I go about it.

Gridlocked

Sort and bitter, this post will be just like I like my men.

Though I do, at times, seem to have magical powers at my disposal (though to anyone who is even the least bit tech savvy, it's not magic but basic know-how at work) the one thing I can't do is predict how bad traffic will be any given hour of any given day. I tried to take a correspondence course from Miss Cleo to develop my physic and future-seeing abilities, but it turns out that was all a scam. If I was physic I could have seen that coming. Ah, the classic catch-22 situation.
